Federal Aviation Administration April 8, 2008 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Airworthiness Directives; Boeing Model 757-200 and 757-300 Series Airplanes
Document Number: E8-7302
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2008-04-08
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
The FAA is revising an earlier proposed airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Boeing Model 757-200 and 757-300 series airplanes. The original NPRM would have required installing a bonding jumper between a ground and the clamp on the tube of the forward and aft gray water composite drain masts. The original NPRM resulted from a report of charred insulation blankets and burned wires around the forward gray water composite drain mast found during an inspection of the forward cargo compartment on a Model 767-300F airplane. For certain airplanes, this action revises the original NPRM by adding a new inspection of existing aft bonding jumper assemblies that might be too short, repair if necessary, and replacement of the bonding jumper assembly with a new, longer bonding jumper assembly if necessary. We are proposing this supplemental NPRM to prevent a fire near a composite drain mast and possible disruption of the electrical power system due to a lightning strike on a composite drain mast, which could result in the loss of several functions essential for safe flight.
Airworthiness Directives; Cessna Aircraft Company Models 175 and 175A Airplanes
Document Number: E8-7258
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2008-04-08
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
We propose to adopt a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Cessna Aircraft Company (Cessna) Models 175 and 175A airplanes. This proposed AD would require you to check the airplane logbook to determine if the original engine mounting brackets have been replaced. If the original engine mounting brackets are still installed, this proposed AD would require you to repetitively inspect those brackets for cracks and replace any cracked engine mounting bracket. After replacing all four original engine mounting brackets, no further action would be required by this proposed AD. This proposed AD was prompted by a report that the engine became detached from the firewall during landing on one of the affected airplanes. We are proposing this AD to detect and correct cracks in the engine mounting brackets, which could result in failure of the engine mounting bracket. This failure could lead to the engine detaching from the firewall.
Establishment of Class E Airspace; Pagosa Springs, CO
Document Number: E8-7243
Type: Rule
Date: 2008-04-08
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
This action will establish Class E airspace at Pagosa Springs, CO. Controlled airspace is necessary to accommodate aircraft using a new Area Navigation (RNAV) Global Positioning System (GPS) Standard Instrument Approach Procedure (SIAP) at Stevens Field. This will improve the safety of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) aircraft executing the new RNAV GPS SIAP at Stevens Field, Pagosa Springs, CO.
Establishment of Class D Airspace; Georgetown, Texas
Document Number: E8-7095
Type: Rule
Date: 2008-04-08
Agency: Federal Aviation Administration, Department of Transportation
This action will establish Class D airspace at Georgetown, Texas. Establishment of an air traffic control tower at Georgetown Municipal Airport has made this action necessary for the safety and management of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) aircraft operations at Georgetown Municipal Airport, Georgetown, TX.
